Recall Reason | Due to manufacturing error, the Pneumoliner Bag Distal Tab that exits the Introducer shaft is in the wrong orientation. This results in the user deploying the bag upside down, which will make tissue encapsulation and bag closure more difficult, introducing the risk of trapping the small bowel/viscera in the bag at closure resulting in patient injury. |
